Every product created at Lorenz Educational Press is based on our commitment to support teachers providing a positive educational experience for students. We strive to produce products that embrace our mission to define learning areas vital to developing well-rounded students and empowering our future leaders.

Lorenz Educational Press is committed to supporting teachers providing a positive educational experience for students. Our mission is " Bridging the Gaps in Education" and it's the statement behind the development of all our products. We believe that there are important concepts that should be part of a student's complete education, but because of the rigors of teaching to the standards they are often not specifically addressed.

Our publications identify those areas, provide easy-to-use activities that can be integrated into core subject studies, and include tools for student assessment. We're creating supplementary materials that focus on such areas as critical thinking and listening skills; cross-curricular learning; music and movement; and team building, which still meet the National Standards objectives necessary to easily incorporate them into the classroom.
